Switeck Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 Please list all the current settings shown on the Speed Guide (CTRL+G) window.And tell us how fast your connection is both down AND up.Lastly, have you tried this slow speed/interrupted internet FAQ?:http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=15992 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 ...So you told µTorrent to use the 2meg UPLOAD setting.You need to use xx/384k setting instead in Speed Guide (CTRL+G)...or LESS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadWingKnight Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 Windows 98 has a system-wide connection limit of approximately 64.Your connection limits need to be reduced below that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 I thought it was 100 by default?http://support.microsoft.com/kb/158474/EN-US/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\MSTCP...MaxConnections = 32-bit number Data Type: StringSpecifies the maximum number of concurrent connections. The default is 100.This number needs to be increased, or as DWK suggested, you can always decrease the global maximum number of connections in µTorrent instead.

tmbm Posted May 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 INternet only works when i download one torrent at a time and stop all the other ones, is that utorrent or is that comin from my end? ta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 Did you change your connection limit settings so they're both below 60? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmbm Posted May 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 That will slow down my connection speed, ill give it a go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 It won't slow your downloads down.Contrary to what you may have been taught, having piles of connections is more likely to slow you down than speed you up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted May 5, 2007 Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 In Speed Guide (CTRL+G), choose xx/384k -- that is the CLOSEST setting to your upload bandwidth.(You had foolishly choose xx/2mbit, which is your download, NOT your upload.)After doing that, you need to reduce global maximum connections to 60 and per-torrent connections to 30...maybe a little more if you only typically run 1 or 2 torrents at a time.Also, try this link if none of this seems to help:http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=15992 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmbm Posted May 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 yeah i set that to 384k and my download speed reduce to 30kb/s or is that just my dumbass self thinking that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted May 5, 2007 Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 What's your upload speed doing at this time?Is it also limited to 30 KiloBYTES/sec max?Or is it reaching the 35 KiloBYTES/sec limit as set in µTorrent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmbm Posted May 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 upload speed is at 5kb/s cause i set it at that and it downloading fine kilobytes/s max, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted May 5, 2007 Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 Then everything is working as expected...you cut the upload speed so low that download speed is choked and restricted....or did you not notice "download limited" at bottom left? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmbm Posted May 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 thats where i set it, its still not working if i set it to, 2+ downloads thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Download Limited is to prevent leeching+hostile behavior with low upload speeds as well as preventing overloads.Getting a download speed up to 6 TIMES your upload speed is fair enough when you've set your upload speed low.If you're downloading faster than you're uploading...someone else isn't!And if you're downloading a LOT faster than you're uploading, LOTS of people on the same torrent almost certainly aren't!
